Chapter 178: Collapse
There were too many people, Xin Yu looked around, not sure if Gu Yu was among them.
It is inferred from the time that Gu Yu should have happened when he left home and returned to the Zijian, and there is still some time before now.
But whether it was a quarter of an hour, two quarters of an hour, or more, no one knows.
If Gu Yu goes out every time he goes out for about the same time, then he should be able to judge it, which is also the reason why Xin Yu just subconsciously looked for Gu Yu's figure.
She quickly gave up her plan to call Gu Yu up in front of everyone to inquire.
There are too many accidents in this world, and a person's fixed behavior will suddenly change, and at this point, he can still rely on himself.
Xin Yu tilted his head and bowed slightly to Liu Zhou.
Liu Zhou shouted, "The neighbors lined up and started making porridge."
The person at the top of the line took the bowl of porridge and looked straight into the other buckets: "That...... Didn't you have any roast meat today?"
Liu Zhou's voice was louder: "Isn't it that a large number of chickens and meat have been bought for several days, and the vegetable market can't supply them. Our girl specially ordered it from Zhuangzi, but it was delivered late, and the meat was just processed when we went out, and it will be delivered in a while, so let's wait a little longer."
"Do you have to queue up again?" The people at the top of the queue were a little reluctant.
Of course, this is not a dissatisfaction with the great benevolent people like Miss Kou, but a resentment about waiting in the wind and snow.
Liu Zhou smiled and comforted: "Today is the last day to give porridge and meat, to ensure that everyone who comes to line up can get it."
When the man heard this, he was indeed comforted.
Since you can definitely get a share of the meat, let's wait.
Fortunately, because it has been snowing for the past two days, everyone has experience, and those with better conditions carry wooden barrels with lids, and those with worse conditions carry bamboo baskets, so as not to let the snow fall into the porridge bowl. Wait a minute, nothing but get cold.
Xin Yu watched silently, no one got the porridge and left, and they all chose to wait in line again for the braised pork.
She quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
Three days of soup soup and meat have built up the trust of these people in her. They believe that they can get a share of the roast meat, and they have tasted the aroma of the meat, so they are naturally willing to take some time to wait.
In the snowy winter, time is the least valuable thing for the vast majority of ordinary people.
"Morning Miss Kou." It was Gu Yuniang's turn to greet Xin Yu warmly.
She really didn't expect that just by helping this girl find a cat that day, she would get such a big benefit.
"Auntie morning." Xin Yu's eyes rolled and landed on Gu Yu, revealing surprise, "Are Gu Gongzi and Auntie a family?"
"Miss Kou and Yu'er know each other?" Gu Yuniang looked surprised.
Xin Yu smiled: "I opened a bookstore near Guozijian, and I have met Gu Gongzi a few times."
"Yu'er is my son." Gu Yuniang looked at Xin Yu more kindly, and used her elbow to pestle her son.
This kid, why doesn't he know how to say hello!
Gu Yu greeted politely, "Miss Kou."
"My cousin is studying in Guozijian, I remember that Guozijian's holiday was yesterday, is Gu Gongzi going to go back to Guozijian?" Xin Yu naturally asked.
"Yes." Because he couldn't guess Xin Yu's intentions, Gu Yu didn't want to say more.
Gu Yuniang is a talker: "Usually it's almost this time to go out. Miss Toko's blessing is that she can eat a mouthful of hot porridge......
At this time-
Xin Yu silently recited these words in his heart, and raised his eyes to look at the sky.
The heavy snow only stopped last night, and I don't know when it started to fall again, and the ocean was sprinkled and boundless.
Even with so many people gathered here, she could still feel the cold of the wind and snow.
A slight shaking sensation came, and Xin Yu noticed it immediately, and her heart tightened suddenly.
Gu Yuniang's hand holding the bowl shook a little, and the porridge spilled out, thinking that she didn't hold it steady, and she was so distressed that she couldn't do it.
Most people didn't react, either thinking it was a delusion or thinking they were dizzy.
"That's not right!" Gu Yu's face changed drastically, "It's the ground
Move!"
As soon as these words came out, the crowd was in an uproar.
The ground shook slightly, and now everyone noticed.
"The earth moves, the earth moves!" Some people shouted in panic and tried to run.
There are also people with some experience who shout, "Get down, get down!"
Many more were not deterred by the slight shaking, and were even suspicious.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise.
"Look!"
"Collapsed, the house collapsed!"
Some people who lost their minds subconsciously ran home, and were dragged by the people next to them: "Don't die!"
The horror was spreading, but the people looked motionless in the direction of their homes as if they had been immobilized.
In that area, one house after another collapsed in an instant, and the snow splashed, and together with the falling snow, covered the ruins of the broken walls.
I don't know how long later, someone threw himself on his knees and fell to the ground and cried bitterly: "It's all collapsed, it's all collapsed!"
Crying abounded, and the heartache lost its shelter.
A young man hugged his wife, and then rejoiced, "Son, it's good that you and the child also came out to get porridge, otherwise—"
The young woman who was embraced by the man held the child in her arms and burst into tears: "Well, it's good to have come out, it's good to have it—"
Her voice paused and she looked at Xinyu.
If it weren't for Miss Kou coming to give porridge and asking for meat to be divided according to the head, she would definitely not have taken the child out on a snowy day, so she and the child-
Looking down at the ignorant toddler, the young woman knelt down in the direction of Xin Yu: "Miss Kou, thank you for saving my family's life and saving my child......
The young woman's words made people react.
Yes, if there was no Kou girl to give porridge here, it was still snowing on such a cold day, and they were still lying under the covers, wouldn't they all be stoned to death?
More and more people are kneeling.
"Benefactor!"
"Thank you, Miss Cole!"
Gu Yuniang also knelt down, but found that her son was still standing upright.
She pulled hard and dragged Gu Yu to her knees.
Gu Yu's whole person was stunned, even if he was pulled to kneel, he straightened his upper body and looked at Xin Yu without blinking.
Because it was their mother and son's turn to make porridge, the girl was right in front of him.
She was wearing a fox coat with a hood and collar of snow fox fur, revealing only a palm-sized face.
That face was frozen snow-white, and a pair of eyes were like black jade, black and pure.
The girl's words sounded in his ears that day: My Guan Gu Gongzi will have a bloody disaster, and it happened when he returned home-
What did he do then?
He thought she was making fun of a poor student like him, and he thought she was the kind of naughty girl who liked to tease people, and turned around and left.
Just now, he was still thinking about the purpose of Miss Kou coming to give porridge and meat.
And now, he finally understood!
But even greater doubts arise: how did Miss Kou know that the house here would collapse? Is it really visible by looking at the face?
Gu Yu's mind was in turmoil, and he was so dizzy that he was about to get up.
Gu Yuniang's hands were quick and she dragged her son to death.
What did this kid want to do when his neighbors were kneeling!
